Skip alcohol for 24 hours before and at least 24 hours after — alcohol thins the blood and increases bruising. For larger treatments or if you bruise easily, give it 48 hours afterward.

Lip filler typically lasts 6–12 months. Lips are highly mobile (we talk, eat, drink, kiss constantly), so the product breaks down a bit faster than filler in less-mobile areas like the cheeks. Most people maintain their results with a touch-up once or twice a year.

Not if it's done well. A skilled injector starts conservatively (often half a syringe to one full syringe), works with your natural lip shape, and prioritizes definition and hydration over sheer volume. "Overfilled" lips come from too much product placed incorrectly or too quickly.

Lips are sensitive. Most providers use a strong numbing cream and sometimes a dental block. The filler itself contains lidocaine. Discomfort is brief and manageable.

Lips swell more than most filler areas — expect significant swelling for 24–48 hours that resolves over 3–5 days. Your "final" result is best judged at 2 weeks. Don't book lip filler the day before a big event.

Yes. Hyaluronic acid lip filler can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase, usually in a single appointment. This reversibility is one of the main reasons HA fillers are the standard for lips.

Most people start with a half or full syringe (0.5–1.0 mL). A single syringe creates a noticeable but natural enhancement for most lips. Larger lips or more dramatic looks may use 1–2 syringes total, often built up across multiple visits.
